Hi!
In bug #70029 it has been reported that DOMElement::nodeValue currently
does not conform to the W3C specs. Instead of NULL, it returns the
::textContent.
I had committed the patch for master only, to avoid the undesirable BC
break for PHP 5.6, but there have been concerns that the BC break might
even be to severe for PHP 7.0.
Therefore I'm bringing this issue to the list. Is it okay to fix the
behavior for PHP 7.0? Shall we wait until 7.1? Does that require an RFC?
